Model Sheriffs.

P. NJ. b. Waite, sheriff Of Tate
county, made his settlement with the
Auditor on the 9th, being the first
sheriff in the State to settle, which
has been the case for three years.
Out of BIAS polls in bis county, he
collected and paid in all but for Ala.
He did not return an acre of land
TO the State, having collected taxes
on all except that already owned by
the State and the railroad lands,
from the collection of taxes OF
which he has been enjoined by the
Federal court. The personal
insolvencies returned amounted in
all to 1885. He, therefore, paid to
the State all that was charged
against him, less said insolyent list
and amounts on the lands that he
was prohibited from collecting
This is the closest settlement ever
made by any sheriff.
Sheriff Gee, of Montgomery, was
second sheriff of the State to make
a settlement with the Auditor. The
tax of his county is Is mills on the
dollar. He has sold only one piece
of land TO the State, and asked only
a cridit of $l665, caused by enron
eous assessments. Mr.. Gee is one
of the best sheritfs in the United
States, and Montgomery county is
justly proud Of him.

Mad Dog.

A mad dog was seen running at
largo about the old fair grounds, near
the car stables, this morning. He had
bitten several dogs, among which
were two belonging TO Mr.. Guthrie, of
East Dallas, another belonging to Mrs.
Jackson and three belonging to the
street car stables. Marshal Beeman
and assistant, Otto Gleiss, killed all
the dogs that were known to have been
bitten but the one owned by Mrs.
Jackson, who refused to have him
killed. Officer Scott followed the
mad dog to Attwood's dairy, about
one mile from the car stables, where
he succeeded in killing him. The
damage the dog might have done be-
fore he was first seen is not known, but
the officers are thoroughly investigat-
ing the matter, and hope to prevent
any danger that may arise from other
dogs which might have been bitten.

Lost by Emigration.

So far as can be ascertained, there are less
than 100000 native French out of France,
whereas there are 4, 200, 900 English and Irish
born subjects residing abroad, and 1900, 900
Germans by birth who have left the father
land. Even Italy has lost by emigration
more than twice as many subjects as France.
Foreigners also think well Of republican
France, for over 100000 Europeans born
outside its limits have taken up their abode
with them, the number being greater than
the combined foreign born population Of
England, Germany, Russia and Italy.-New

of the early morning has spread all
through the list, but at present there
are some signs supporting the orders
being put in the market. To add to
the depression, Just as supporting
orders were given, private dispatches
were received from Chicago stating that
one of the banks in Chicago needed
assistance, but these dispatches were
followed by denials from officials of the
bank, and the break in stocks is gen.
orally believed to be the sequel to wheat
panic in Chicago and bankers are of the
belief that if rumors regarding weak
ness of banking firms in Boston and
Chicago, resulting from the failure of
the Fidelity Bank, Cincinnati, should
prove unfounded, the course of prices
would be upward at once.
